Overall Customer Satisfaction
Customers consistently praise the shop for its high-quality repairs, with many noting their vehicles looked brand new or better than before the accident. The team receives strong recognition for professional, friendly service and seamless insurance coordination. Communication stands out as a key strength, with customers appreciating frequent text and call updates throughout the repair process. Timeliness is largely commended, with several vehicles completed ahead of schedule. A few customers noted occasional delays due to parts availability or third-party insurance issues, and one mentioned an interior cleanliness concern - both points raised directly by customers. Overall, satisfaction is very high, with the majority of customers expressing intent to return and recommend the shop to others.

I am very pleased with the professionalism & pleasant attitude of the staff. The repairs were perfect & performed in a timely manner. The price was far below going to a Land Rover dealer. I will use Ted's Body Shop for all future needs.

My Experience

My first experience was many years ago, when you beautifully restored my beloved 1979 Golden Eagle Jeep. Unfortunately since then, I've returned multiple times for a variety of reasons thanks to car washes, hail, others texting while driving, a woman right turning w/o looking, or a few bad decisions on my part!! There's a reason my car insurance agency says "we only require one estimate if it's from Ted's. They and I know the team is professional, customer focused, and your work is the best in the business! Thank you all!

Likely to Recommend

I've already recommended them multiple times.

Repair Quality

They'll do a superior job on any type of body work. They did a miraculous job on my 1979 Golden Eagle Jeep restoration.

Customer Service
